This crystal clear skin refining lotion with Hydroxy-Acids, soothing moisturizers and Pitera; It is alcohol & fragrance free. For a perfectly conditioned and ultra-fresh skin, use the Facial Treatment Clear Lotion morning and evening after cleansing your face and neck.

The final part of your cleansing process, this Lotion helps remove residual impurities and dead skin cells. It increases skin’s ability to absorb nutrients from other skincare products.

I use it as a clarifier or toner after cleansing; it hasn’t got the distinctive aroma of Pitera as in SK II facial essence ( which could be a blessing for those who cannot tolerate that yeast-like/fermenting odour ). I find it gentle enough to be used twice a day.

I also like soaking a paper mask with this clear lotion and then apply the saturated mask onto my face for at least 20 minutes so that the lipid soluble BHA ( salicylic acid ) could works it wonder. This is a product that contains both AHA, BHA ( clarifying/exfoliating ) and Pitera ( regenerating/regulating ). My face feels moist, refreshed, renewed and nourished after this ritual. Although this means consuming my treatment clear lotion at an accelerated pace!

Due to the high content of moisture magnets – hyaluronic acid in this powerful serum, it’s normal that your skin feels tacky upon application. If you then follow this with a spray of mineral water/hydrating mist, you will notice you skin transforming into a smooth, radiant canvas (once the moisture is absorbed, retain & reinforced into the epidermis ). I couple mine with Avene Thermal spring water.

I had been using this brown bottle miracle intermittently since its launch in the 80’s, it was the ultimate potion on my mother’s dressing table. I started using this wonderful serum in my teens and had since been a fans of this repairing serum; to me, it’s a skin insurance, to preserve the youth and radiance of my skin.

It’s was a breakthrough concept then to guard skin against environmental assaults such as free radicals and i believe my skin was saved by the usage of this potion from young age. This was the serum, before the launch of all those serums.

It was a pioneer in skin repairing and still light years ahead of its competitors.

I firmly believe this is the one formula beautiful skin can’t live without.

The new advanced night repair is a comprehensive, high-performance anti-aging serum-inspired by groundbreaking DNA research, brings a dramatic reduction in the visible signs of aging to skin.

It helps to continuously repair the appearance of past damage, prevent future damage and deliver high levels of hydration.

VISIBLE RESULTS, PROVEN SUCCESS.

Even the best can get better. This advanced formula-with 20 patents worldwide-includes all the benefits you love about the original, plus more to help your skin repair itself like never before:

Exclusive Chronolux™ Technology

Repairs the appearance of past damage.

Addresses damaging effects before they become permanent.

You’ll see a visible improvement in the signs of aging-specifically lines, uneven skintone and immediate hydration.

Enhanced Environmental Repair

Neutralizes up to 90%* of environmentally generated free radicals before they can affect skin’s appearance.

That’s key, because environmental assaults such as UV, smoke, pollution and even emotional stress are the #1 cause of premature signs of aging.

The advanced technology in ANR repairs the appearance of damage caused by every major environmental assault.

Think of it as “insurance” for younger, healthier-looking skin, today and tomorrow.

Regardless of the application advise, i am using this lovely serum twice a day,underneath my moisturizer/sunscreen to safeguard my skin. Its texture is runnier than the previous generation but the hydrating capability is superb.

This should be the serum on the dressing table of everyone that is concern about achieving beautiful, youthful skin!

Eve Lom Moisturiser TLC Radiance Cream is a daily moisturiser to help your skin look and feel soft, hydrated, youthful and radiant. Suitable for all skin conditions and ideal for everybody who looks for a lightweight daily moisturiser which not only hydrates, but also provides lifting and complexion boosting action.

For a more radiant complexion added Silica Mica smooth out skin imperfections and add natural sheen and radiance to the skin.

Combined with Hyaluronic Acid skin will be immediately moisturised and longer lasting skin hydration is guaranteed.

I was totally amused by this new moisturiser; Unlike the rest of Eve lom’s product, this wonderful moisturizer is lotion gel like in texture ( despite it’s named cream ), totally refreshing and non occlusive! It even mattifies my skin when i use it over my holy grail face oil ( ILA ), during day time.

I find my skin less greasy whenever i use this miracle product, be it over serum or oil. This is definitely my new holy grail multi-purpose moisturizer. It’s also a great makeup primer, helping my powder to glide on effortlessly.

The only claim it fails to fulfill is adding radiance, as the silica/mica formulation fail to deliver even a subtle sheen on my skin upon application.

Protective barrier serum that helps to give the skin an even texture; cocktail of targeted antioxidants that diminishes the look of lines and wrinkles by up to 54%.

Armed with Super Antioxidant System (SAS), it defends against the visible aging effects of free radicals triggered by environmental assaults both immediately after exposure and again up to 72 hours later. It helps strengthen skin and boost its natural defenses by helping skin bolster its collagen production to improve visible skin tone, radiance and diminish the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

Inexpensive, natural toner that helps to freshen up and tighten the skin.

Rose water is an effective, exhilarating freshener that not only tones the skin but also lifts the spirit. Neal’s Yard is the most economic i had tried ; Aromatherapy Associates has a damask rose facial toner ; Amanda Lacey & Chantecaille both have luxurious rose tonics ( almost pure rose distillate ).

Helps to reduce the depth of wrinkles and hydrates the skin to give the face a plumped-up, youthful glow.This revolutionary Anti-Ageing cream uses the Marine extract Padina Pavonica to transform the complexion in just over 2 weeks. Trials proved that the appearance in wrinkle depth was reduced by up to 78% and that hydration was increased by up to 45%. Skin firmness and elasticity are dramatically increased, whilst providing superior free radical protection.

Collagen is a great moisture magnet, but i don’t believe topical application of collagen enriched skin cream could revive/enhance collagen production in the dermis. I prefer creams with retinoids, peptides, alpha hydroxy acids.

4) Jurlique Biodynamic Beauty Serum

A lightweight serum made from biodynamic ingredients ; Rich in the living energy of organic Black Elder and Licorice, this serum helps fade discolorations and brightens skin for increased radiance ; Beech Tree Buds, Hibiscus and Yeast help strengthen the skin.

Jurlique’s biodynamic serum leaves a matt finish due to the presence of starch and i don’t find it nourishing enough. Biodynamic? Sounds more like a marketing scam.

5) Eve Lom Kiss Mix

Compact lip treatment which moisturises lips and gives a dewy, subtle sheen. One application lasts a long time.

My favorite! ( at least one of ) – dense enough for protection and nourishment , yet light enough for comfort; It’s also quite “minty” on application; The only complaint is you have to dip your finger into the pot……

A light yet very nourishing night cream that is easily and hygenically dispensed from a nifty press pump.

I enjoy using Vaishaly’s product; no hypes, simple rituals, delicate scents, good enough to eat ingredients……

8) Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant

Extremely gentle exfoliant that can be used every day for a brighter-looking appearance.

As I use Eve Lom’s cleanser with polishing cloth, i find this unnecessary ; However, powdery paste like Dermalogica’s daily microfoliant is less abrasive when skin is blemished/irritated/inflammed. Calmia has a similar version ( skin bright micro polish ), both containing fruit enzymes and acids to renew the skin.

9) Chanel Précision Lait Confort creamy cleansing milk

A light, everyday cleaning milk which is soft on the skin and effectively removes the day’s grime.

There are plenty of equally efficient cleansing milk out there, which your bank manager will agree……

10) Dr Sebagh creme Extreme Maintenance

Ultra-rich cream specifically designed for very dry or sensitive skin. Absorbs easily.

An easily absorbed daily moisturiser with antioxidants and the bonus of an inbuilt SPF 15.

This kind of formulation might be a breakthrough in the 90’s, but what’s so special about it nowadays? I demand my day cream to have antioxidant properties and sun screens ( including sufficient UVA protection )

12) Ila face mask for revitalising skin

Clay-based mask infused with Damascene rose otto and Argan oil that draws out impurities without drying the skin. Gives the face a bright glow.

Ila Face Oil is a nourishing treatment that gives skin a glowing radiance.

This organic face oil has been called a ‘little miracle’. Your skin will rediscover its natural bloom and you will notice a healthy glow to your face. By revitalising skin at a deep level, it nourishes and heals.

Ila Face Oil protects against the sun’s rays, nourishes and heals the skin and also works beautifully as a makeup primer. It wears beautifully under make up and is a great moisturiser for all skin types, even acne-prone. It is 92.52% organic and comes in a white, opaque bottle with dropper.

The essential oil of damascena rose otto deeply regenerates and nourishes the skin’s cells and imparts glowing radiance while argan oil and rosehip seed oil are high in anti-oxidants and fatty acids to fight wrinkles and help skin cells to regenerate.

I call this Winner of Marie Claire UK’s Prix D’Excellence International Beauty Award a ” Fragrant Facial “. The ultra nourishing oil glides on smoothly, absorbed instantly, leaves a glowing veil and intoxicating rose aroma. It’s great as a facial massage oil. I loves using it as a pampering treat underneath my night cream before retiring to bed.

Rose flower oil calms sensitivity, and vitamin E provides antioxidant protection, conditioning, and softening benefits all while locking in moisture for a plumper, more supple complexion.

Developed for mature and prematurely aging skin, this gentle cleanser prepares the skin for further treatment, leaving it perfectly cleansed, soft and comfortable.

I had read about reviews of this cleanser in Makeupalley, most of the users were complaining that this powerful cleanser tends to dry up the skin and is too low foaming for an effective cleansing.

It doesn’t make my retin A treated skin flaky or irritated ( may be my skin had accustomed to “harsh” treatment after retinoid acid ). It smell is not as rosy as i would prefer. However, it does clean reasonably well, leaves my skin smooth & bright.

I found a way to make it foamy enough for my preference; i apply it on dry face, like any other milky cleanser, massage it all over, then add in a handful of luke warmth water. The emulsified solution will foams, and in my opinion, a rather dense fine foam!

I also use it all over my body as an exfoliant /moisturiser, without any adverse effect. I purchased this product in salon size!
